Taylor is a guard out of Shadle Park High School. He finished his career with the Highlanders as team captain and defensive player of the year. He averaged 10.2 points and 5.4 rebounds per game for Coach Tim Gaebe in helping lead Shadle Park to a 22-6 overall record and State Tournament appearance. Taylor started 27 games for the Sasquatch before suffering an ankle injury in the first game of the NWAACC tournament. He averaged over five points per game, but the things he does best are not measure on the stat sheet. Taylor’s unselfish play and his ability to do all the little things played a huge role in Spokane’s success a year ago.
